About Me

I’m Olivia Dirksen, a Sport Management major and Promotion minor at Gonzaga University with a relentless passion for the sports industry. I grew up in Davis, California and was raised to deep appreciation and love for sports as a whole. When a series of ACL tears ended my time as a competitive athlete, I channeled my love for sports into a new goal: working in the industry.

My mission:

"I am committed to building a career in sports

defined by passion, results, and respect. My

mission is to work harder every day to prove I

have a place in this arena, while maintaining a

spirit of kindness that empowers other women to

enter this field with the confidence and

knowledge that high achievement and genuine

empathy goes hand-in-hand."
